Tompkins Food Future is a two-year community planning project led by the Tompkins Food Policy Council, funded by the Tompkins County Legislature and the Community Foundation of Tompkins County, and housed at Cornell Cooperative Extension Tompkins County. Over the two years, organizers have conducted a baseline assessment of the current local food system and facilitated the development of a long-term community food system action plan focused on a resilient, equitable, and healthy food system for all Tompkins County residents. Throughout this process, more than 2,000 individuals and 50 businesses and organizations have contributed.

Tompkins Food Future will host a series of forums over the summer and fall months to share the plan with the public, seek feedback, and identify opportunities for collaboration.
